Frequently Ted talks are part of my video viewing. Instead of mindless viewing of fluff, it always seems better to watch things that are funny, informative, and inspiring. Here is a Ted talk that can make you think and laugh. Happiness can come from many places, both internal and external. Watch this #TedTalk from Shawn Achor to see if it changes your perspective on how to make the better choices for yourself.

It made me think more about the long term outcome of decision making and how it relates to my overall happiness factor. Do we really know what choice is the best for now and in the future? Where does your happiness come from?

Sidewalk Chalk performance art Jennifer Neff and I put down using oil pastels. This was in 2015 during a Festival put on at Warwick Village, now called the Village Square, in Jefferson City, MO. It rained on the pavement before the art was finished, but it was still great fun and brings happy thoughts.
